Greg Pritchard's bio:

If life is absurd, which it surely is, then it is necessary to illustrate its absurdity. The most effective way to do this, I have found, is through art, whether it be writing, visual art or performance. Music doesn’t work, it is the only thing that can convince you that life is not absurd.
